Joseph R Coppola's Obituary
Joe passed away peacefully on August 15, 2022. He was predeceased by the love
of his life of 63 years, his wife Rita Coppola. He is survived by his sister-in-law,
several nieces and nephews, and one of the other loves of his life, his cat Amy.
Joe lived in Connecticut working his way up through the ranks at Pitney Bowes
where he became the Director of Purchasing. After retiring early from there, he
and his wife Rita ran a marina on Lake St. Catherine in Vermont, finally retiring in
Palm Coast to enjoy their retirement.
He enjoyed collecting guns and hunting whether just being one with nature or
getting that prize game. Always having a story to tell, always having something to
say, people just loved him.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Joe's honor to your local humane society to help animals like Amy find a loving home would be appreciated.
Arrangements are being handled by Heritage Funeral and Cremation Service in Bunnell, Florida. A funeral service will be conducted on Saturday October 1, 2022 at 10:00am at St. Philip Catholic Church in Norwalk, Connecticut.
